Guess the Map 12: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Hate Mercator

You seems like a kind of person who have it. But I'm not sure..

So this is something that you don’t know if I have it, however, I know if I have it but I don’t know what it is so I can no more say that I have it than you have it.

Take it away, Secretary Rumsfeld!

Computer ownership

Super close! But lets just nail it right away, it's a highest number of pc available in the country!

I'm not sure if Amadeus use pc or laptop, because me myself I don't own/have pc currently.

But because both Amadeus and Kyr are oldschool in a way, I believe both of them own pc instead of laptop.

Most of the time nowadays I'm posting from my phone. I have a laptop, but no desktop. At some point, I guess laptops became cheap and powerful enough to compete with desktop PCs on many things so I never bothered to get a desktop again.

@MaryKB it's your turn

If you can type using your phone without any trouble, you are young at heart. I cannot use my phone to post without tons of typos and miss-type. That's why I like to communicate via whatsapp by recording my voice than typing. It's so hard to type using phone.

Getting everything written correctly on the first try? Not possible, no matter the input mechanism. I'm just used to hitting that backspace key. (I made four mistakes while typing out this short message.)

New map. This is just G8+5 countries. Lower percentage is better.

 

[H4run]

Is this related to women or babies?

 

[MaryKB]

No.

 

[H4run]

Are these related to event (like an accident, a life condition or a status of something)?

Or psychological?

Physical health related?

Economy?

Or possession/availability of item?

 

[MaryKB]

Definitely not the first one. But you could make an argument it's related to all the others.

 

[The_J]

Something age/demographics/population structure?

 

[MaryKB]

It's probably related to that, but not directly.

 

[H4run]

Is this about security?

 

[MaryKB]

Difficult to answer. This is about non-violent crime.

A non violent crime that US scores less than Canada and Japan? Interesting I wonder what is that. But that's a big clue, thank you.

In what way Canadian and Japanese can be more crime-prone than USians. Mmmm....

 

[MaryKB]

The criminals committing the crime typically don't view themselves as criminals.

Ugh and please, it's Americans, "USian" is stupid and looks ugly.

 

[H4run]

Piracy? Copyright?

Ugh and please, it's Americans, "USian" is stupid and looks ugly.

I try to maintain Tim's vocab in cfc, that's his signature word and I used that whenever I feel like I miss him.

 

[MaryKB]

Yes! It's software piracy rates.

Ugh, I personally would highly recommend against following Tim's lead on things.

Alright I would like to give it to @Hrothbern , I think he must have a lot of chart and map that he would like to share. If he refuse then open floor.
